IMO both the Miami and UF contracts violated NCAA rules
Also, FL collective residence requirement was problematic legally
(I will not state why I think that publicly but have spoken to some in the business privately)
The FL collective signed a contract that they had not funded (the UF On3 board stated that as well in so many words)
I would love to see how our collective's contract with Nico was structured (though California allows HS level NIL deals - TN now does as well)
This may sound strange but the only publicly honorable thing in this saga was the UF releasing him from his LOI
Full disclosure: I am a member of the Volunteer Club and through it have met several current VOLS and VFLs.
One of my favorite interactions was with Gerald Riggs at the SC(Jr) tailgate. He is funny and a great person to talk with.
BTW, if you are a member of the Club and/or a member of VQ I highly recomment watching the weekly Vol Club Confidential
In those you get a weekly update from one of the principals of the collective and a great interview of a player or coach (AP is a great interviewer)
